Sweep and Scan

Family owned and operated. Full time, full service residential chimney cleaning and maintenance company.

Serving the community since 1978.

Coverage area: Marshall and St. Joseph counties in Indiana.

The cleaning begins when the floor area is covered
with our tarps to protect your carpet or flooring. The
cleaning process includes wire brushing the
chimney flue to remove the creosote build up. In a
fireplace, we also brush the smoke
chamber/smoke shelf area and the firebox. For a
wood stove, we brush out the stovepipe and the
stove, as well as the flue. To control dust while
cleaning, we run a high powered vacuum, designed
specifically for chimney cleaning. After the
chimney is cleaned we video scan the chimney
system.

In 1991 we started video scanning every chimney
we clean. This was an eye-opening experience.
Some chimneys that visually appear in good shape
have major problems. Some chimneys that appear
questionable are found to be in good condition.
Without the video scan, your chimney lining
system is a mystery at best. At the worst, dangers
lurk, hidden from view. Click here to read more on
